Did K-drama actress Han So Hee lie about her age? Here’s the REAL reason behind it

New Delhi: The internet buzzed with shock and curiosity as South Korean actress Han So-hee found herself at the centre of an unexpected age controversy.

Recently, a picture that circulated online confirmed that the Nevertheless star was born in 1993, not 1994, as her official profiles suggest.

Fans and netizens alike were surprised by the revelation and eager to know the truth behind the discrepancy. Notably, this discovery has raised questions about the My Name star’s real age. Scroll down to read the details!

Why did Han So-hee lie about her age?

While it’s not unheard of for celebrities to adjust birth years for various reasons, Han So Hee’s case has a deeply personal backstory. According to her agency, 9ato Entertainment, the actress’s “year mix-up” dates back to a traumatic period in her life. They explained that So Hee’s mother was involved in a series of legal issues, which eventually led to her arrest when the actress was young.

At the age when most kids are in elementary school, So Hee faced a life-changing ordeal. When she was supposed to start fourth grade, her mother forced her to move to Ulsan due to legal issues, and she missed a year of school as a result. When the K-drama actress eventually returned to her hometown of Wonju and re-enrolled in school, she started fourth grade a year later than expected. This delay inadvertently altered her birth year on some official documents.

In fact, the K-drama star’s mother was arrested last year for allegedly running an illegal gambling business. Despite these troubles, So Hee has managed to forge an impressive acting career, gaining both local and international fans.
